The 3 contrarian trades I just dropped on Schwab (they're betting against the madness)

Zero-day options on 4 stocks are now controlling your entire portfolio...


Just wrapped my segment on Schwab's Trading 360 and I had to tell viewers something that should terrify every trader:

Zero-day options on four stocks are literally taking over the entire market.

Google. Microsoft. Amazon. Tesla. That's it. That's your whole market now.

When gamma risk on four names drives everything else, we're not trading fundamentals anymore. We're trading pure mathematical chaos.

And here's what's even more broken: Fund managers are throwing "caution to the wind" - rotating money into sectors for all the wrong reasons. Not because of opportunity. Because it's simply not tech.

This insanity created three massive contrarian opportunities I just shared on Schwab:

The "yoga pants" fade - Sometimes you go after low-hanging fruit. When a former high-flier is testing 52-week lows and the technicals are screaming downside, I'm not fighting it.

The "delivery trend rider" - Yeah, I'm actually going WITH momentum on this one. When rotation finds the right fundamentals, why fight a freight train moving in your favor?

The "homebuilder madness play" - Higher rates. Record retail debt. AI job fears. Yet this sector is ripping because money has to go somewhere. When you're buying stocks for all the wrong reasons, I'm taking the other side.

Look, I don't mind stepping in the way of a freight train when the math doesn't work. Small, measurable risk for massive upside potential when this rotation insanity finally stops.

Because it will stop. Just don't know exactly when.

To your success,
Don Kaufman
